Both of the turnovers today were created by DL pressure. We've been a good run defensive line since 2004.

Our OL kept them from collapsing the pocket on Campbell for most of the game, which was key to give us a chance.

I don't, for the record, believe that either of our units, offense or defense is as good as theirs. But I think the difference is in the skill positions on offense, and back seven on defense. Not on the lines where both teams are very strong.
